I don't know about you, but I'm still buzzing after that incredibly inspiration film, Keep On Keepin' On, and the Clark Terry tribute concert. The documentary from Director Alan Hicks and Executive Producer Quincy Jones (both students of Clark Terry) chronicles the jazz trumpeter's mentoring of Justin Kaulflin, a blind piano prodigy.Keep On Keepin' On is a gorgeous portrait of Terry's lasting legacy in the music world. "We just wanted to premiere in New York!" quipped first-time director Alan Hicks.

So naturally, the world premiere brought out some of Clark Terry's dearest friends. Here are some great lines from the premiere and concert.
